Web Server installed with GitLab Server Community Edition

How to Use GitLab
1

I created an AWS EC2 Ubuntu 18.04 instance, with nothing on it.

I then installed the GitLab Server CE edition, as follows:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y curl openssh-server ca-certificates
sudo apt-get install -y postfix
curl https://packages.gitlab.com/install/repositories/gitlab/gitlab-ee/script.deb.sh | sudo bash
sudo EXTERNAL_URL=“http://gitlab.myserver.com” apt-get install gitlab-ce

The server is running fine. When I went to http://gitlab.myserver.com

I got the dialog to change the root password., I changed it, and went to the Dashboard.

I am having trouble trying to figure out what web server is running on the server.

I tried looking for /etc/nginx and /etc/apache but these folders are not there.

Any idea what web sever got installed and where I can find it on my server instance?

By default, Omnibus installations of GitLab come bundled with nginx as the web server.

You can find information on all the different configuration options for NGINX with GitLab here:
